[Idolization and dependency and falling into comatose-like depression over someone else are NOT feelings belonging to any healthy or normal relationship, okay, even though admittedly, anything between a human and a spirit - nevermind the Lord of Spirits - is very much NOT normal. It only started out that way anyway, he got better he swears. His feelings for Milla are... complicated. If asked, he wouldn't say it was something that just happened to him. She was captivating from the very beginning hard not to be with that sort of figure AND what she was doing, but there's also just... So Much More to Milla Maxwell that Jude can definitely shell out an entire thesis about the topic.
...Good thing this isn't about Milla, ahem, so back to Leia. There sure has been a lot of "looking at each other in confusion" going around today, huh,]
Then I'm glad to hear it, and I'm happy for you too.
[His answer is simple, almost innocently so, accompanied by an open and earnest smile. Leia's already been doing her own thing back home, they both decided to not stick to the medical field independently for their own reasons. Not any surprise that she's continued going her own way, she's been on her own without him knowing for 8 months too. What kind of friend would protest? Marui did seem like someone who matched Leia's wavelength from the moment Jude met him, plus Jude isn't a skeptic by nature, too trusting and everyone who knows him knows it. He's also been admittedly too busy with his research to get to know the guy better, but his impression had remained positive. So if him and Leia are "more than friends" whatever that may mean, then of course that's fine, he'll support his childhood friend in what makes her happy and naturally wish her nothing but the best. Isn't it pretty straightforward? Makes it weird that she was so nervous, haha, what did she think he was going to say?]
boys are DUMB, leia
